Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying math that powers modern machine learning to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives, even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves?

TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… burnout is a common feeling, sometimes so common that you might not even realize it’s happening to you. Many of us are conditioned early on to prioritize external demands and ignore the internal signals that are telling us it’s too much. This is exactly what Dr. Neha faced in her role as a physician, but it took the people around her to help her realize that she desperately needed a break. In this episode, Dr. Neha discusses how to recognize the symptoms of burnout and how to treat the root cause.

WHAT I LOVE MOST… it’s not just about hitting pause on your daily obligations. Dr. Neha goes deep and looks at the mental, emotional, and social sides of burnout and how to sustainably heal those.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I’m eager to replay a conversation with Bill Wooditch. Bill is the founder and CEO of Wooditch Enterprises. He works with Fortune 500 companies like AIG, Old Republic, Zurich, and Bank of America to improve their sales and leadership. He appeared regularly on Steve Harvey’s “Act Like a Success” show and has also appeared on CNBC, Fox, and CBS. He has written for Inc., New York Daily News, and the American Management Association. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to succeed and learn how to use their indispensable failures to get there faster! TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…..it’s the serious student of success that treats failure as the indispensable teacher. Unless you’re able to first move through the pains of rejection and the fear of the attempt, you will not be able to move forward to create the lifestyle you dream of. The key here is to be dispassionate about failure and check your irrational fears, ego, and the fear of losing prestige because this can paralyze your progress. Bill shares some wisdom and strategies for addressing fear, failure, and the pursuit of success. WHAT I LOVE MOST… it’s a pleasure to have someone on the What’s Next! Podcast who talks about fear of failure and having the courage and fortitude to lean into the kind of discomfort that leads to success.

That is the power of the Innovation Tournament, it leaves room for that magic spark to fly while giving it direction and structure. Beyond Innovation Tournaments, it’s about becoming continuously connected.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I’m reflecting on a conversation with Heather Monahan that I think is valuable to everyone, no exceptions!

As a Chief Revenue Officer in Media, Heather Monahan is a Glass Ceiling Award winner, named one of the most Influential Women in Radio in 2017, and Thrive Global named her a Limit Breaking Female Founder in 2018.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to reach his or her full potential and needs that important confidence boost! TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… take ownership of your mental platform and be intentional about the tape you run repeatedly in your head. Confidence is the key to unlocking your full potential, and that confident mindset starts with you. It starts by developing that confidence skill through discipline and frequency. When that confidence muscle is strong, scary does not mean freeze, it means go faster. So, take action! Major action is the catalyst that accelerates the confidence growth cycle. There are many paths to confidence, but not all the steps along those paths are created equal, and the bigger the risk, the bigger the confidence reward. Stop letting self-limiting beliefs and fear tell you you’re stuck. No excuses. Just take action! WHAT I LOVE MOST… Heather has no shortage of passion for building confidence, taking risks, “firing your villains,” and making the big decisions that will lead you where you need to be and doing what you love!

πριν 5 weeks34:27

34:27

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I am excited to replay a conversation I had with the innovative Tom Stockham. Tom is a passionate champion of disruptive technologies who began his career as an associate at BCG, immersed in the shift to “big-box” retail. He later served as president of Ticketmaster.com, where he helped lead the transition to online ticketing. Then, as CEO of Ancestry.com, he built one of the Internet’s first online content subscription businesses. Today, as CEO of ExpertVoice, Tom leads the company in pioneering a new influencer-marketing category that’s transforming commerce. He’s devoted to the mission of creating a better buying experience for brands, retailers, and consumers through a large network of authentic influential experts who make trusted recommendations. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… passionate disrupters, innovators, and those interested in learning more about influencer marketing. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… brands should always put trust at the center of their organization and make a concerted effort to build it up over time. Increasingly, the sources brands are and should be using to do this are Influencers. It’s time to shift the balance and shift resources from speaking on your own behalf as a brand to finding trusted figures that can recommend your brand and speak on your behalf in a trusted way. If you are going to do this well, you need to think about who is going to be best to speak on your behalf, how you are going to get them to do so and be more articulate about your brand, and where that influence is going to take hold such that it is beneficial to your brand. WHAT I LOVE MOST… talking to an innovator who has been involved with so many major industry transitions. Now he’s driving the conversation around Influencer marketing, and he feels that this is the next great frontier.

He has been on the Forbes Midas List eight times in the last decade and was also named a “Rising Star” by FORTUNE and profiled by Harvard Business School for his lifetime contributions to entrepreneurship. Before becoming a full-time investor, Mike was involved as a founder and operating executive at back-to-back startup IPOs, including Tivoli Systems, which was acquired by IBM, where his dad used to work, and Motive acquired by Alcatel-Lucent.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. In this LinkedIn Live, I had the wonderful honor of welcoming my dear friend, Seth Godin, who I met in 2001 through his book Purple Cow, which is one of my all-time favorite books. Along the way, Seth has always been a great supporter of me and my career. Today, I’m eager to discuss Seth’s latest book, This Is Strategy: Make Better Plans. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone who wants a fresh perspective on leadership and strategy. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE…strategy isn’t a lofty document or annual exercise. It’s a compass guiding every decision you make. Seth challenges the conventional idea of strategy as static and instead frames it as a dynamic, iterative process of becoming. He shares nuggets of wisdom from his new book, which he says is a love letter for the people he cares about. KEY TAKEAWAYS… Fear is often the thing that holds people back from making bold decisions. False proxies, like easy-to-measure but irrelevant metrics, can misguide your focus. The best leaders inspire action by focusing on the “why” behind their strategies. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Seth’s thoughts on practical empathy. He says it’s easy to become attached to something because you’ve worked hard on it. Practical empathy is understanding your audience and imagining what they need, even if that means reinventing your offerings. It’s a call to lead with both courage and care.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week, I’m welcoming back for a second time Terence Mauri, a global expert on the future of leadership, AI, and disruption, and really, the intersection of those three things. As the founder of the Hack Future Lab, he spearheaded a movement for leaders to find the upside of disruption and rethink leadership for a post-AI world. He has a new book out called The Upside of Disruption: The Path to Leading and Thriving in the Unknown. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone navigating change in work or life who wants to lead with direction. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… we’ve all heard the saying, “The only constant in life is change,” and most of us would agree, considering the changes we’ve seen even just in the past several years. How do you approach leadership and innovation in times of change? Terence Mauri challenges us to think beyond incremental change and embrace bold, transformative thinking. In this episode, he discusses how leaders can stay future-ready and thrive in the face of uncertainty. KEY TAKEAWAYS… We’re hardwired to have a "yes, but" mindset which tends to be very reductionist. When you practice a "yes, and" mindset, you open yourself up to opportunities. Move from KPIs (key performance indicators) to KBIs (key behavior indicators). Prioritizing subtraction is one of the finest forms of learning. Combat "bore-out" by aligning work with purpose and creating a culture of engagement. WHAT I LOVE MOST… Terence reframes disruption as an opportunity when so many see it as an obstacle. He encourages listeners to lean into change with curiosity.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… anyone who wants to learn how to deliver true personalization at scale. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… customer experience is imperative to business success, but personalization remains elusive for many organizations. In this conversation, David offers his playbook on making personalization a core business strategy for organizations of any size. He also shares a detailed walkthrough of the Five Promises of Personalization. Key Takeaways: If you consider personalization a strategic goal, you need to be able to measure it. Compensation is often too abstract of a metric. Instead, David recommends using measures of business performance. If you can’t make your product simpler, you need to educate your customers. The customer experience should be getting better and better over time. WHAT I LOVE MOST… David’s points about thinking about the flow of company interaction.

Mayur Gupta is the Chief Marketing Officer at Freshly, leading a team of marketers to make Freshly an iconic brand and drive breakthrough growth. Before Freshly, Mayur was the Global VP for Growth & Marketing at Spotify, the Chief Marketing Officer at Healthgrades, and the first-ever Global Chief Marketing Technologist at Kimberly Clark, one of the largest global consumer packaged goods companies. In 2014, Mayur was recognized as one of the “40 under 40” leading marketers in the industry by Brand Innovators, was profiled by the Harvard Business Review and the Economist as the model Chief Marketing Technologist, and also received the CMO Programmatic Award by the CMO Club. He sits on the Board of Directors of Adtalem (NYSE:ATGE) and D’Addario (private), guiding the C-Suite in their digital transformation. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… marketers looking for a master class of modern marketing and how to create an experience that will influence, inspire, and change a human life from one of the quintessential marketers of our time. TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… Mayur brings his engineering mind to the world of marketing. His message? Your internal culture–your company culture–is key and central to the culture you are trying to build around your product. It’s important and indispensable to use everything at your disposal: math, science, and research. But ultimately, it’s all about being customer-focused, authentic, and transparent. At the core of any well-rounded, successful, and long-lasting organization is a human-centric strategy that is sincere and authentic. Your goals as an organization should always be customer-focused, and that starts within your organization with your very first customer, your employee. You cannot be customer-focused if you do not first care for and about the people you work with, because they are the brand. WHAT I LOVE MOST… Mayur’s transparency on the fact that this is all a journey and things in our industry continue to change based on what the customer wants from us.
